Chapter 215 Kyushu Business Alliance

On the second day, the East 'Gate' Qing summoned Wu Ping, Tang Xiuji, Cui Guangnan, Li Rongjiu, Chen Baifu and Xu Hai, and said: "Yesterday's meeting, in fact, I have reservations, it's not that I don't want to fight, but I have some concerns, so let Guoqing go to the void and the Shimazu family committee snake, I have really decided in my heart to suppress and suppress this Satsuma mad dog who dares to intercept my money, but how to fight, but I want to discuss with you." ”

Tang Xiuji, Li Rongjiu, Xu Hai and others all had the courage to make meritorious contributions, and they were all happy when they heard what they said. Tang Xiuji said: "The chief owner, this Shimazu family, you can fight, but you can't just fight like this, you have to find a name, it is best to make those wealthy families think that we are fighting because of robbing trade routes, so no matter who wins and who loses, they will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." If they think that we have the intention of invading the land and seizing the land, I am afraid that even those wealthy families who have 'friends' with the Shimazu family will rise up and support them, and then it will be troublesome! ”

Dongmen' Qing listened to his suggestion, although it was not as lofty as Dai Tiancai, but it was also secretly in line with it, which was the strategy of "going to the political war and returning to the business war", and he was overjoyed in his heart, so he asked: "What do you have in mind?" ”

Tang Xiuji said: "The chief owner can secretly urge the Matsuura family and the Ryuzoji family to set up their own businesses to handle their family's business. The Japanese have always admired our Datang, what we have, they will follow what is popular, Datang has a tea ceremony, they will also learn to drink tea, our Datang out of Zhuzi, they also followed Zhuzi Xue, I heard that there is a Wang Xue recently, all learn our Datang Wang Yangming. ”

He opened his mouth a "our Great Tang" and closed a "Our Great Tang", just listening to this, he really felt that he was more like a Chinese than a Chinese, Li Rongjiu had no feelings about this, Cui Guangnan was disdainful in his heart, but he did not break it, Xu Haidao: "Tang Da Treasurer, you said this, does it have anything to do with this attack on the Shimazu family?" ”

This time in the Penghu system, most people are very satisfied with their titles, but Tang Xiuji is a few exceptions - originally he hoped that he could lead the title of the big pipe, but how did he know that the East 'Gate' Qing would classify him into the business road and let him lead the title of the big treasurer, he went to the East 'Gate' Qing to change it, and the East 'Gate' Qing said: "Now we have a separate fleet, and Wu Ping has been in charge." If you really want to be in the military, I'll give you two options. ”

The choice of the East 'Gate' Qing said, one is to go to the big man, like Zhang Wei to develop the land foundation, and the other is to lead the deputy chief pipe with the title, Tang Xiuji thought about it, or be a big shopkeeper. But he was a little absent-minded as a big treasurer, and he always felt that his talents were more suitable for military affairs, so he hoped to make meritorious contributions to the war at the first opportunity, which was one of the reasons why he was very positive about the Shimazu family this time.

At this time, hearing Xu Hai ask, Tang Xiuji glanced at him and said in his heart: "Although this Xu Hai is a little scheming, he joined Qinghuaxiang and fell in love with the eldest lady, but after all, he is still a little tender!" Can't guess my plan! He smiled and said, "Mingshan, you don't understand!" Japanese people like to follow our trend, so it's a great way to take advantage of that! Now that we have established a business name here, if the Matsuura family and the Ryuzoji family take the lead in establishing a family business under our secret prompting, other wealthy families will inevitably follow suit. In this way, the entire island of Kyushu has changed from one family to another! ”

When he said this, Xu Hai sighed and said, "Clever plan, wonderful plan!" In this way, if we quarrel with them again, we can claim to be the contradiction between Qinghuaxiang and Shimadzu! ”

Dongmen' Qingyi praised when he heard it: "Good Xu Hai, his head is really bright!" ”

Tang Xiuji was furious in his heart, and couldn't help glaring at Xu Hai, hating him for snatching his own words! Li Rongjiu said on the side: "Chief Boss, this plan was developed by Hideyoshi." ”

Dongmen Qing smiled and said to Tang Xiuji: "You continue." ”

Tang Xiuji was slightly dissatisfied, but this plan was his proud work, and he was looking forward to overpowering Wu Ping with this, although he was robbed of a word by Xu Hai, but the initiative could not escape after all, so he continued: "When the daimyo from all over Kyushu have established firms, let's make a move, kidnap the Matsuura firm, the Ryuzoji firm, and even the Yamaguchi family, make trouble with the Shimadzu Chamber of Commerce, and then attack it in the name of the alliance of merchants, take its money and property not to occupy its land, and seize its population without destroying its name, so that it is a business to attack business, and it has become a battle between the two merchants, And it has nothing to do with the Tang people. The daimyo who are close to the Shimazu family see that we don't want land, so they won't worry about us encroaching on Kyushu, but will take advantage of the fire to rob the Shimazu family! In this way, we will not need to kill the Shimazu family ourselves, their neighbors will help us drive them out! And the group saw that the Shimazu family had fallen to such a fate because they offended us, and they would be much more honest when they met us again in the future! ”

The east 'gate' celebrates the great joy and even calls it a wonderful plan! said: "This matter, it's up to you!" Tang Xiuji happily accepted the order. Dong'men' Qing said to Cui Guangnan again: "Guangnan, the last time I fought with the Longzao Temple family, I was forced to fight suddenly, and I only wanted to win at that time, without considering the cost of the war. It can't be that way this time! I don't hesitate to oppose the war, now I can only rely on you to raise supplies, I hope that in addition to ensuring the supply of materials, try not to let Qing Huaxiang lose too much money! ”

Cui Guangnan asked: "Chief Lord, if the war starts, how many troops do you plan to use?" ”

The east 'gate' celebrated: "The headquarters of our fleet is all used!" In addition, I will borrow troops from Uncle Li and Xu Yuanliang, and mobilize the forces of the Matsuura family and the Ryuzoji family, in order to win with one blow! ”

Cui Guangnan was speechless: "Isn't the scale of that regulation bigger than last time?" ”

"That's nature!" "The Shimazu family is stronger than the Ryuzoji family, and the forces we have to use will naturally exceed last time!" I know it's going to be extremely difficult, but I hope you'll figure it out. ”

Cui Guangnan pondered for a long time and said: "In the last battle before the 'fat', we actually didn't need to 'spend' some money, but because of our lack of experience, the money that should be 'spent' was 'spent', and the money that should not be 'spent' was also 'spent'." If you cut those unnecessary expenses, then the 'fat' battle will not be so expensive! If the battle starts this time, I suggest that the general owner deal with the guest army in the following way: the Songpu family's Ryuzoji family's side, or the Li director Xu Yuanliang's side, ask them to send troops and ask them to supply their own supplies. If you can capture the Shimazu family, it's best not to lose money like last time, it's best to make some benefits, and then give Xu Yuanliang and them a share of Songpu Ryuzou Temple, and it is a long-term strategy to fight and support the war. ”

The east 'gate' Qing said: "Okay! Do as you say! He also summoned the ghost of the world and ordered him to secretly investigate the roads and fortifications of Satsuma. The other important ministers who heard about the matter made secret preparations for the opportunity.

After the meeting, Tang Xiuji invited Matsuura Takanobu on behalf of the East Gate Kei, and summoned Ryuzoji Takanobu to Hirado to 'bewitch' them to establish a family business. The Matsuura family already had a lot of foreign business, and the Ryuzoji family also got a lot of business benefits since they got close to Qing Huaxiang, and then listened to Tang Xiuji's "advice", and felt that it was a good thing.

When the news came out, all parts of Kyushu really responded to the news, and the coastal wealthy families, regardless of whether they had commercial strength or not, took the establishment of family businesses as a fashion, and each place established a business alliance, such as the Ito family established the Hyuga Business Alliance, the Otomo family established the Bungo Business Alliance, the liver Fu family established the Osumi Business Alliance, the Shimazu family established the Satsuma Business Alliance, and so on.

The East 'Gate' celebrated the joy of hearing the news, secretly rejoiced, and said in his heart: "Thanks to Mr. Dai's deep planning and Tang Xiuji's wisdom, Kyushu is in my favor!" ”
